Through their married life they discovered artistic value while searching for resolution for their disputes. Their works are models for looking at the tension in human relationships. They also project an awareness of ‘living together as an adaptation’ in the rapidly globalizing world that we live in. In 2010, they began a participation project called Dialogue. It is an ongoing collaborative drawing of Thai / Thai American couples who live in United States.
